  1. I can think of a few good manager candidates. Productive Outs (fka Dobson) and the guy that used to be Cro Magnon (forgot his current name). Been in leagues with both and they're both good managers. I've also been in a league with Erik and deucebaseman. If you think this league can't get any worse, you'd be sorely mistaken.
  2. Quoted for posterity.
  3. Let the tyranny begin
  4. Do we need to vote on this or can we just turn over the keys? I get the sense that some owners aren't going to be back next year, so it'd be great to get an active commissioner in place so we can keep the league running for those of us that plan to come back.
  5. So Federer was just throwing the match or what?
  6. USC may have the best top talent in the country but boy do they seem shallow.
  7. Two questions: 1 - can I start drinking at 7am local time if things are looking bleak in Dublin? 2 - how far does Michigan fall in the rankings for week 2?
  8. Obviously I'm talking about all of the 19-21 year olds that are in A ball or below. Like whom, exactly?
  9. The dodgers using their leverage will have no impact on how Theo deals with them going forward. Nor should it.
  10. Plus the best Purdue team in almost a decade is awaiting you in week two after traveling back from Ireland. I'm not a Danny Hope fan but I gotta think a short week, jetlag, over-confidence, and looking down the road to all those ranked teams plays in our favor. I'm not sure any of those will be a problem in week 2. This isn't a team coming off a big bowl win or something. Heck they don't even have a QB yet. ND isn't at a place where it's looking pasta my opponents yet.
  11. Half those teams probably won't be in the top 25 at years end. I really do hate preseason polls.
  12. No offense but I don't think this league is the top priority for anyone. But if you can't spend a couple of minutes a week on it, what's the point of agreeing to manage a team? I can't believe it's fun to someone that spends no time on it at all and it's frustrating to other managers.
  13. Granted pre-season polls are meaningless but...3, 4, 8, 13, and 18 on the schedule. Gulp.
  14. I'm on this bandwagon. I'll even bet rocket's life on it.
  15. To give abuck something to bitch about
  16. And he played it perfectly in the media by being sympathetic to Dempster when everyone can see from the facts that Dempster had no reason to feel blindsided. Loving this FO
  17. This is where that announcement will be made
  18. I'm not sure who usually does this, but it looks like nccf did it last year, so I'll take a stab. Based on standings as of 7/31 and H2H matchups as tiebreakers, I came up with the list below. But there are a couple of groups that I don't know to order. 1. Calvinball 2. NSBB 3. Theocracy 4. Ron Washington's Dealers 5. Eyes of Texas (beat Dealers h2h) 6-8 ---- 8/9 teams Alamo Stealth (beat Sock It wk 1; beat Lynx wk 2; 4054 PF; 4234 PA) Lynx (beat Alamo wk 17; 4031 PF; 4049 PA) Sock It Thome (beat Alamo wk 16; beat Lynx wk 7; 2945 PF; 4159 PA) --- 9. Mighty D-Block 10-13 --- 10/7 teams Quakers Socia's Tragic Illness Toots HBC ---- 14. Kid Rodelo 15. Sanitizers (beat kid in both h2h) 16. Bazingas
  19. They have to stay under 75 and I don't think the NCAA agreed to let them go over to take Redd. Sounds like a former walk on that earned a scholarship unearned it.
  20. And do it before 3 other people. :) Guys, I'm seeing online that dempster has been traded. As soon as the film gets developed I'll fax the picture I took of my computer screen to Tim. Now that they have 1-hour photos, you'll see confirmation in no time.
